Wasps can be elusive and not immediately noticeable unless they are actively flying around your property. However, several signs indicate a potential wasp problem. Here’s how to identify a wasp infestation early:

• Visible Nests: The most obvious sign of a wasp infestation is the presence of a nest. Nests can be found in various locations, including under roof eaves, in trees, or inside wall cavities. They are usually made from a papery substance and may be quite large if left untreated.
• Increased Wasp Activity: If you see more wasps around your home, especially near potential nest sites, it means there’s a problem. Wasps often fly back and forth between their nest and food sources.
• Wasp Stings: If someone gets stung by a wasp on your property multiple times, it might mean a nest is nearby. Stings hurt, but they’re not usually life-threatening. This only happens if a person is allergic.
• Humming or Buzzing Sounds: A low buzzing or humming sound near a wall or ceiling may mean wasps are nesting in a cavity or enclosed space. The sound is caused by the movement of the wasps inside their nest.
